Not being able to get new ledgies has obviously been a bit of an impediment.

It is a shame that if any of the surviving members were to decide to idle an afternoon away by reading the comments they would do it through their fingers. Yes, John and Lindsey may get an easier ride, but I've never walked in any of their shoes. It was always lovely when Bob Welch turned up, and Jeremy too, until that Wendy-related incident (or am I mis-remembering here).

It's been stuff like untangling the so-called fake Mac episode, finding the identity of Mrs Scarrott, talking
about Danny, finally establishing what Christine did on Then Play on and suchlike that I've enjoyed, and putting those brief crazy twelve years from the Dog and Dustbins to Tusk in some sort of context. What a story, what a band

yeah i see they are often pretty vitriolic about this site on reddit... and that makes me a little sad, but whatever. i sometimes tell people to ignore stuff that irritates them and move on, but i guess some folks get pissy and would rather avoid the ledge completely. i still find it worthwhile to focus on stuff that interests me and ignore (usually! haha) stuff that ticks me off, either here or on any site.

what a story, what a band, indeed.
